Château Magdelaine was acquired by Jean-Pierre Moueix in 1952 and merged into Château Bélair-Monange in 2012. The 1982 vintage thus represents a rare opportunity to experience a piece of château history. A classic old school Bordeaux profile with dominant Merlot in the blend.

The 1982 Magdelaine is a vintage that I have only encountered a couple of times. I wish it was more. Wonderful transparency on the nose, this has a sensual nose of Morello cherries, raspberry and lavender, hints of freshly shucked oyster shell that emerge with time. The palate has a sweet entry, beautifully balanced, one bottle showing slightly attenuation on the finish, but another bottle fuller and deeper, gaining intensity with Ausone-like rondeur on the finish. Fabulous. Tasted at the 1982 Dinner at Hatched. Neal Martin27th September 2022
